Immunotherapy v Cancer: This video shows the potent cancer-killing effects of CAR T-cell Therapy. Here at the Malaghan Institute we are working hard to make these life-changing treatments available to all New Zealanders. 


Every day, more than 60 people in New Zealand are diagnosed with cancer.

By training the immune system to better recognise and fight cancer we can create gentler, more effective treatments that last. Our research focuses on developing treatments that stimulate the immune system’s cancer-killing properties. We need your support to continue our research and pave the way for a new era in highly personalised, gentler treatments.


"If we want to bring new therapies to New Zealand we really need to make sure we have the right support to get them there. 

That means more fundamental research, more data, and – crucially – more financial support to really prove we are on to something."

Dr Olivia Burn

We need your support to fuel our research and pave the way for a new era in highly personalised, gentler treatments.
